NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 66 - The quest for correct stats

906 with 16. Up from 2631 to 2047.

Really thinking holding trades this week.

847 for the round, lost about 130 spots.
Would have been par if it wasn't for Avo. It is what it is though, I'll bounce back next week

Was struggling in the 20s before 2 big attacking plays last week then serves up a 31 this week. Will become some sort of round 17 player

Thinking the same. Needed someone to trade for tohu. Hunt has put his hand up.

What stings more though is not trading him in once Flanno got dropped. That was a clear buy signal in hindsight. Ah well, congrats to those that either never traded him, or got on early. What a gun!

I got burned with bringing in bulldogs halves 3 times the last 2 seasons, no way he was a certainty

961 and up to rank 365. Moving in the right direction

I wasn't even doing particularly well early season, despite having Cleary and captaining him every week.

My peak was 1353 overall after round 6, and since then I've been getting absolutely slaughtered every week, and it doesn't seem like I have enough trades to make a charge at the end.

Keep fighting Beth. Don't take a soft out, play on.

Clawed back 1,500 in rank from rd 13 with a 875. Sitting in the mid 8,000's. Don't get too hung up on fantasy, it doesn't define you as a person.

I'm sitting around 5,500th now which is halving my rank over the past two rounds. Stoked with that.

Inside the top 10k again. It has been some time but the drinks are cheaper here and I refuse to get kicked out again!

Well done guys, great to see the forum coming alive!

777/16 for me, my second lowest score of the season thankfully I've *only* dropped 643 places to 1699.

In hindsight, Ben Hunt was not the best choice for captain...

867 pre updates for me, and dropped to 64th overall.

Sadly was going to bring Avo in for this round, but injuries / suspensions / rests meant I had more pressing issues.

Going to be an intersting TLT....

Bethany_B wrote:595 from 15 players this week, I would kill to be scoring as well as you are Cookie!

Honestly might just give up at this point, my team is beyond saving and I lost 5k ranks this week, down from 6k to 11k.

Got 12 trades left and don't own any of the guys that are now suddenly killing it.

Nope, giving up is not an option. Stick it out, zig when others zag. You got this!

926, down to 110th. Cheering.

950 points on the nose for me. In from 85th to 59th

Got some serious Averillo envy here, but don't think I can justify brining him in, just have to hope my picks go well and stick to the plan, probably. Will think about that.

Probably time for Harris and SJ to come in. Think about the other two trades.

If I had him, probably would have done the same. Dragons were absolute shit.

4 trade weeks are so damn tempting. It’s horrid

You're right and i wont be knee jerk trading him after one poor performance

Oh shit is it 4 trades this week? You're fucked Matto, fucked I tell ya!

Nah I'm already chickening out TBH
